Why is everything like this at Stanford? Why not some other schools for a change?
I would love for more schools to offer course on entrepreneurship. I'm not sure if I was ready for one while I was in college though.

This is a weekly on-campus meetup where people hack on their projects in a collaborative environment. It's open to the general public, and anyone nearby with code to write is welcome to come work on it at Stanford.
What's fantastic about this is that even though the class is at Stanford, everyone from around the world can follow along just as easily. Stanford is opening up more and more of its opportunities to the general public, which is awesome. Another one I'd recommend taking advantage of is Stanford's Hacking Hours: https://www.facebook.com/groups/750201348380852/ This is a weekly on-campus meetup where people hack on thei…

It's interesting that this is inside of the computer science department and is limited to engineering students considering YC has really been expanding the companies it's accepting. E145[0], an existing and highly sought after technology entrepreneurship course, is just a general engineering class and isn't limited to traditional engineering majors, as far as I'm aware. Tons of great founders of tech companies come f…
Three cheers for the furthering concentration of privilege and access!
I am beyond jealous. That instructor list is unreal. Students at Stanford get another peg up on the starting ladder... (Also there is only 90 universities signed up for watch parties, yet copy lists "hundreds")
There's no reason to be jealous...if you spend your time doing actual business while they're taking classes, you'll win.
